Downtown Lulu's has downhome feel

With all his years on the road, country music legend Merle Haggard knows something about diners. Here's a shoutout he delivered between songs at a show at Red Bluff's State Theatre a couple years back: "To all the waitresses at Lulu's, to all the waitresses at Lim's ..." Then he added, to much laughter: "Every few months it seems like I'm having to give up something else, but I'm not gonna give up pancakes." Amen, Merle.
